Project description:Gene expression profile in Arabidopsis stems of T-DNA insertion lines Atwrky12-1 and Atwrky12-2 were compared with Columbia wild-type plants at 45 days after germination.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to compare the differently expressed genes in the wild type and the KDEL-tailed cysteine protease AtCEP1 knockout (atcep1) Arabidopsis using RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq). Methods: Arabidopsis buds mRNA profiles of anther development stages 5-6, 7-9, and 10-11 of the wild type (WT) and atcep1 mutant were generated by deep sequencing via Illumina HiSeqTM 2000. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with the following steps: Remove reads with adaptor sequences; Remove reads in which the percentage of unknown bases (N) is greater than 10%; Remove low quality reads, in which the percentage of the low quality base (base with quality value ⤠5) is greater than 50%. The clean reads were mapped to the Arabidopsis reference genome and reference genes using SOAP aligner/SOAP2. No more than 2 mismatches were allowed in the alignment. The gene expression level was calculated using RPKM (Reads Per Kb per Million reads). Differential expression analysis between the wild type and the atcep1 mutant was performed using the DEGseq R package (1.12.0) based on normalized read counts. A corrected P value of < 0.005 and |log2Ratio| > 1 were set as the threshold for significantly differential expression. Results: We identified 872 genes showing significant differential expression, and in the atcep1 mutant, the upregulated genes significantly outnumbered the downregulated genes at the three time points. The GO analysis of the differently expressed genes showed that the expression of genes participating in anther tapetal secretory structure formation, pollen wall development, and tapetal cell wall generation, clearly changed. Arabidopsis buds mRNA profiles of development stages 5-6, 7-9, and 10-11 of the wild type (WT) and atcep1 muant were generated by deep sequencing via Illumina HiSeqTM 2000.
Project description:This study profiles transcriptomic changes of Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 in response to submergence. This dataset includes CEL files, RMA signal values and MAS5 P/M/A calls from total mRNA populations of plants at 9 to 10 leaf rosette stage. Biological replicates of root and shoot tissues were harvested after 7 h and 24 h of submergence in darkness along with corresponding non-submerged dark controls. To characterize the dark response, non-submerged light controls plants were harvested at the 0 h time point. Quantitative profiling of cellular mRNAs was accomplished with the Affymetrix ATH1 platform. Changes in the transcriptome in response to submergence and early darkness were evaluated, and the data led to identification of genes co-regulated at the conditional and organ-specific level. 20 samples, 5 conditions (7 h submergence in darkness, 7 h darkness, 24 h submergence in darkness, 24 h darkness, 0 h light control), 2 RNA pools (rosette leaf and root tissues), 2 independent biological replicate experiments
Project description:Potato plants are sensitive to multiple abiotic stresses such as drought, low temperature and high light. We analyzed the transcriptome of WT potato plants as well as that of transgenic potato plants expressing the Arabidopsis stress related transcription factor CBF1 that confers tolerance to multiple stresses. Wild type and AtCBF1OX transgenic potato plants were exposed to low temperature, high light, drought or kept under control conditions as described below in detail, and transcriptional changes induced by the different stresses were analyzed.
Project description:Gene expression analysis by high-throughtput RNA-sequencing from roots of waterlogged jatropha (Jatropha curcas). Six leaf stage seedlings (~30 d.o.) were subjected to 24 h of soil waterlogging. 4 samples, 2 conditions (24 h nonstress and 24 h waterlogging stress) and 2 independent biological replicates of 2 mRNA pools
